Article Synopsis
  • Polarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) plays a crucial role in understanding the proton spin puzzle.
  • The study presents comprehensive results for polarized SIDIS at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in quantum chromodynamics, covering all relevant interactions.
  • A numerical analysis highlights the importance of NNLO corrections and demonstrates reduced scale dependence, particularly for the kinematics relevant to future electron-ion collider experiments.

Semi-inclusive hadron production in longitudinally polarized deep-inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering is a powerful tool for resolving the quark flavor decomposition of the proton's spin structure. We present the full next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the coefficient functions of polarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) in analytical form, enabling the use of SIDIS measurements in precision studies of the proton spin structure. The numerical impact of these corrections is illustrated by a comparison with data of polarized single-inclusive hadron spectra from the DESY HERMES and CERN COMPASS experiments.

Article Synopsis
  • - The potential existence of negative gluon helicity (Δg) has been found to align with current data from experiments like polarized proton-proton collisions and lattice QCD measurements.
  • - A new analysis of polarized parton distributions in protons introduces constraints from high-x deep-inelastic scattering (DIS).
  • - Results indicate that models incorporating negative Δg struggle to match high-x DIS data alongside other experimental data, implying that negative Δg may not be a viable solution.

The COMPASS Collaboration performed measurements of the Drell-Yan process in 2015 and 2018 using a 190  GeV/c π^{-} beam impinging on a transversely polarized ammonia target. Combining the data of both years, we present final results on the amplitudes of five azimuthal modulations, which correspond to transverse-spin-dependent azimuthal asymmetries (TSAs) in the dimuon production cross section. Three of them probe the nucleon leading-twist Sivers, transversity, and pretzelosity transverse-momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDFs).

The polarized cross-section ratio σ_{LT^{'}}/σ_{0} from hard exclusive π^{-}Δ^{++} electroproduction off an unpolarized hydrogen target has been extracted based on beam-spin asymmetry measurements using a 10.2  GeV/10.6  GeV incident electron beam and the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab.
